Is Derrick Rose off the market?

I’m not sure about this one. But, according to sports blogger Jill (a Lakers groupie who makes it her business to know which ballers are on or off the market), Chicago Bulls superstar Derrick Rose has a girlfriend/fiancee.

Rumors have swirled for months that D. Rose is down low or teh ghey, but Fox Chicago anchor Jan Jeffcoat spotted Derrick and his woman at her church, FCC in Chicago this past Sunday. So, like any good journalist would do, she tweeted a few pics during the service.

There is growing debate about whether groupies should be tweeting and taking pictures in church. But the fact is, we wouldn’t know which team these suspect sports figures batted for if it weren’t for groupies taking pictures in churches.

Anyway, these pictures don’t prove or disprove Derrick’s sexual orientation. She could just be a good friend or a beard like Amber Rose was to Kanye West.

But, according to a church member the woman in black is Derrick’s fiancee. Below is a comment she (or he) left on Jill’s blog:

I actually attend that church and people usually know better than to take pics because celebs are in out of there all the time. I’m a huge fan of D.Rose but church is not the right place for that. They are regular people too, let them worship. And yes that is his girlfriend/fiance.




 

Paris Hilton blaming Oxygen network for bad ratings

Somewhere in Paris Hilton’s small, but grandiose, mind she sees herself as someone bigger than even Oprah herself, who, by the way, used to own a large share of Oxygen network before ABC bought it. The reason I bring that up is because Hilton is blaming the Oxygen network for fouling up the premiere episode ratings of her show ‘The World According to Paris.’

The heiress to the Hilton fortune is complaining loudly that Oxygen network botched her premiere by switching the time slot for her reality TV show. But in reality, no one was checking for that garbage no matter what time slot it was in.

An insider tells Popeater.com, “Paris is furious that the show didn’t premiere at the time it was supposed to. She worked her tail off doing promotion and publicity for the show and then because of a technical mistake, the show aired at a completely different time in a lot of markets.”<\em>

But a rep for the network denies that the time slot was switched at the last minute due to a technical mistake.

The show premiered at 10 p.m. on Wednesday, June 1 as was promoted,” an Oxygen spokesperson told Popeater in a statement.

Hilton’s reality show drew poor ratings (below 400,000 viewers). By comparison, former Danity Kane singer Aubrey O’Day’s reality series premiere drew 724,000 viewers. A TV insider tells Popeater that “If the numbers remain less then the 400,000 that tuned in last week she could get pulled off the air.”

They might as well go ahead and pull her off the air right now. The public is becoming more aware of the signs of narcissism (thanks to this blog and others). And nobody likes a narcissist.




 

Dwyane Wade: My Life as an NBA Superstar Single Dad

In a very touching editorial for Newsweek magazine, NBA star Dwayne Wade writes about the emotional battle for custody of his two sons, Zaire and Zion.

Wade writes about his bitter, public divorce from his wife, Siohvaughn Funches, that culminated with a judge granting him full custody of his sons.

Wade moved his sons in with him permanently in Miami just before the end of the regular season two months ago.

“Bad memories vanish each morning when I walk into both of my sons’ bedrooms to wake them up for school—their laughter gives me all I need to face whatever is happening in my life,” he writes.

In addition to writing about his struggles, Wade includes a message to all black men — and to single mothers who think they are all the man their sons need:

All children need their fathers, but boys especially need fathers to teach them how to be men. I remember wanting that so badly before I went to live with my dad. I wanted someone to teach me how to tie a tie and walk the walk, things only a man can teach a boy. Of course, back then, I never could have imagined being in the same situation someday with my own kids… I just want people—men, and men of color in particular—to hear my story and know that their children need them and that it’s their responsibility to be there for them. We have to step up as men and do our part. There are no excuses. Source

Wade also thanked his mother and sister, “and others” — for helping him to raise his two boys “and making their new living arrangements a smooth and happy transition.”

Curiously, Wade didn’t mention his longtime girlfriend, actress Gabrielle Union, anywhere in the Newsweek article. Could the rumors be true that Gabby is a cold, insensitive, selfish woman who isn’t interested in children? Let’s hope not.




 

Weiner Roast: Dirty Congressman Comes Clean

In a shocking confession during a live press conference today, Congressman Anthony Weiner admitted that he tweeted a graphic image of himself to a college co-ed!

After nearly two weeks of lying to the media, Weiner, a classic narcissist, faked tears as he confessed that he lied about not sending the vulgar tweet. He also said that he wouldn’t resign as a NY congressman.

Congressman Anthony Weiner today sensationally admitted he had exchanged a series of photos and messages of an explicit nature with at least six women.

In a shocking confession, the shamed politician was close to tears as he broke down and told reporters he had lied about sending explicit pictures in a bid to protect his wife and family.

But despite the humiliating apology, the Congressman repeatedly refused to resign. In an extraordinary press conference in Manhattan this afternoon, Mr Weiner said: ‘I have made terrible mistakes that have hurt some of the people I care about most.

‘I apologise to my wife and our family. I am deeply ashamed of my judgement and terrible actions.
Then he told a stunned audience: ‘I have exchanged photos and messages of an explicit nature with at least six women over the last few years.’




 

Weinergate: Two More Women Come Forward With Photos

Well, there’s no question about it: two more women have come forward with new photos and information proving that NY Congressman Anthony Weiner is a shameless pervert.

How embarrassing for the people of New York who thought they were electing a Congressman who would look out for their interests in Washington.

Instead, Weiner apparently spends most of his time in Washington sending naked pictures to young women as if he were a college stud with raging hormones.

As promised, Biggovernment.com published the above photograph that was allegedly sent to the young woman on Friday, May 20, 2011 via a Yahoo! email address that she claims was an alternate alias for Rep. Weiner.

A Google search conducted by Biggovernment.com for the email address Rep. Weiner allegedly used on that occasion yields an invisible Yahoo! profile with images that appear to be a cache of Rep. Weiner’s personal photographs.

The question is not IF Nicki Minaj had breast implants, but how many?

Cartoonish rapper Nicki Minaj unleashed her new and improved boobs for the world to see on the MTV Movie Awards last night.

Of course, these are not the first implants for the 28-year-old “Your Love” singer who is completely fake from the neck down. It’s hard to say just how many breast enhancements Nicki has had to go along with her butt shots, nose jobs, cheek and hip implants. But does it matter?

Yes, say some mothers who are appalled that Nicki was invited to speak to their daughters at a school in Chicago. One mom emailed me to say she wasn’t warned that Minaj would make a surprise visit to Collins Academy High School last month.

“None of the parents received advance warning,” she wrote. “I was shocked and appalled that [Nicki Minaj] was the most positive role model the school could invite to speak to our students.”

The mom of a 16-year-old student, said she would have yanked her daughter out of classes if she had known that Nicki would visit the school that day.

Maybe the teachers used Nicki’s visit to teach the kids that the human body is made up of 60% water, but Nicki’s body is composed of 60% silicone and other industrial strength lubricants?




 

Sean Kingston is breathing on his own and walking

Singer Sean Kingston is reportedly breathing on his own and taking baby steps at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami, according to the AP. His condition has been upgraded from critical to serious, which means he must remain in ICU (or an ICU step down unit) under the watchful eyes of critical care nurses and doctors.

Kingston, 21, suffered horrific, life-threatening injuries when his Jet Ski slammed into a low bridge at high speed near Star and Palm islands in Miami over the Memorial Day weekend. He was rushed to Jackson’s Ryder Trauma center and hooked up to a ventilator to assist him with breathing while his collapsed lung healed.

According to the Associated Press:

A publicist for Sean Kingston says the “Beautiful Girls” singer is breathing on his own and walking in a Miami hospital.

Joseph Carozza says his client’s condition has been upgraded to serious more than a week after Kingston crashed his watercraft into a bridge off Miami Beach. A female passenger also was injured.

Kingston has been hospitalized since the May 29 crash. Carozza says Kingston walked Monday morning for the first time since the crash.

In an email, the publicist said Kingston thanks his friends, family and fans for their prayers and well wishes.
